Composição Buck Mills Stipe Introdução: It’s only when your poison spins into the life you’d hoped to live and suddenly you wake up in a shaken panic now   You had set me up like a lamb to slaughter Garbo as a farmer’s daughter Unbelievable the gospel according to who? I lay right down All your sad and lost apostles hum my name and flare their nostrils Choking on the bones you tossed to them now I’m not one to sit and spin because living well’s the best revenge Baby I am calling you on that Don’t turn your talking points on me. History will set me free The future is ours and you don’t even rate a footnote now! So who’s chasing you? Where did you go? You disappear mid-sentence In a judgement crisis I see my in and go for it You weakened shill. All your sad and lost apostles hum my name and flare their nostrils Choking on the bones you tossed to them now I’m not one to sit and spin because living well is the best revenge and baby I am calling you on that You savor your dying breath I forgive but I don’t forget You work it out let’s hear that argument again Camera three... GO NOW! All your sad and lost apostles hum my name and flare their nostrils Choking on the bones you tossed to them now I’m not one to sit and spin because living well is the best revenge and baby I am calling you on that Baby I am calling you on that Baby I am calling you on that

À propos de la chanson

La chanson évoque une lutte personnelle contre des trahisons et des échecs, mais affiche une résilience face à ces défis. Elle souligne l'importance de vivre bien et sereinement comme réponse aux méchancetés subies. Les paroles parlent de personnes qui se sont tournées contre le narrateur, symbolisées par des "apôtres" désillusionnés, mais qui ne peuvent le rattraper. En fin de compte, la force réside dans une attitude positive et déterminée, affirmant que la véritable revanche se trouve dans le bonheur et le succès personnels. Elle reflète un contexte de conflits relationnels et de désillusion, où l’authenticité et la guérison personnelle deviennent une forme de libération et de victoire.
